The focus is on recreational paddling and so all trips avoid complicated put-ins, portages, and dangerous expert sections, while offering something unique in terms of setting, geology, and wildlife. While most trips involve rivers, there are also a few notable lake paddles that offer scenery and exploration opportunities one won't find anywhere else. Rivers range from the mighty Mississippi to the humble trout-waters of the White River. Each paddle provides a map of the route. Paddle summaries - including the route itself and the character of the waterway at large - are clear and detailed so paddlers will know exactly what toxpect. Quick information makes the logistics of each paddle clear for accurate trip planning and includes explicit directions to landings with GPS coordinates. Short write-ups -- about history, geology, and other attractions - are interspersed throughout the book.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Paddling Wisconsin pulls together 40 excellent paddling adventures, offering destinations evenly spread throughout the state.

Look inside to find: - The book doesn't just focus on rivers but also includes a few extraordinary lake and marsh paddles that cannot be found elsewhere. - The destinations are evenly spread out throughout the state and cover all of the not-to-be-missed waterways, plus several lesser known or oft-overlooked paddles. - The author is a Wisconsin native with several other outdoor titles to his name. - All the trips in the book could ostensibly be done by beginners and none would be characterized as hardcore paddles or requiring a helmet.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kevin Revolinski is the author of several guidebooks including 60 Hikes Madison, Backroads and Byways of Wisconsin, and Wisconsin's Best Beer Guide (formerly The Wisconsin Beer Guide: A Travel Companion).
